JAMES WANE THE SECRET BILLIONAIRE

It was a late winter night and cold outside. The street was decorated with Christmas lights of various shapes, sizes, and colors.James Wane had just returned home from work with a bouquet of flowers in his hand to surprise his wife, Alisha.It is their third wedding anniversary. He was tired but happy, looking forward to having an intimate night with her tonight just like a few days back.He didn't buy her any gift but he had prepared her favorite dish in the morning before he left for work. He quickly parked his electric bike outside and headed to the door to surprise her with the flowers.As he walked in, he was surprised to see two people seated in the sitting room watching TV. One was a middle-aged woman who looked about 40 years old. She was dressed in an expensive Dior gown and had an expensive Dior bag with the same color as the gown.The other was a young man in his late twenties. He was wearing casual wear. It was the kind of clothing you wear when you're relaxing. A T-shi

The man on the other end was Ryan Wane, James' uncle, and the younger brother of his mother. Ryan Wane is currently the richest man in the whole of Emerald Falls.He is in charge of all the major companies in the state. He is what you can call the man of the people and everyone loves him because of his philanthropic nature.James's mom was supposed to be the heir of the rich Wanes family, but she died together with her husband when James was a kid. So, James's uncle, Ryan Wanes, had to take charge until James got older.When he knew it was James calling him, he was so excited. He had been looking for James for the past three years after he left home."Oh! James! How are you, son? Where have you been all these years?""I'm good," James replied."Where are you now, James?" His uncle asked him excitedly."I'm safe. I want to tell you two things." James declared."Go on, James. What's this you want to tell me? I will do whatever you ask.""The first is I want to let you know that I'm di

The next morning, inside the court, James and his wife, Alisha were about to get divorced officially.Kate was at the court, too. In fact, she was the first person to come to the court that morning. She wanted to make sure that Alisha divorced James once and for all and for good.She had invited her friends and all the people in the family who despised James so much. Alisha wasn't in support of it."Is this your disgusting son-in-law?" Her friends asked her. "Oh, point of correction, he's not my son-in-law anymore." Kate snapped. "HAHAHAHA!" They all laughed maliciously. "I can't believe you put up with him for so long.""He's nothing but filthy." "Filthy? That's an understatement. He's a disgrace."James overheard their insult, but he kept a straight face which pissed them off the more. When the judge finally arrived, they all kept mute and waited for the proceedings. The judge was a quiet woman who did the proceedings without delay. She asked them. "Why do you two beautiful c

Meanwhile, in the police station, James was kept in a private torture room.The room was completely dark with no windows in it.Ten minutes later, two policemen came into the room to question him about the crime he didn't commit."Hey Listen up, Mr." One of the policemen, the one who appeared to be their leader, said to him. "I know you know why you have been arrested. Yes?""But I didn't steal anything," James replied calmly.The other policeman said, "Well, the evidence says otherwise. We have you on camera, and your key can open that strongbox.""That's a lie! Tell you what, here's what happened ok…""Better don't start cooking up stories.""I had no place to sleep that night, and the only place I could think of was my workplace. I only slept on the veranda and I did not break into the building.""But you were the only one the CCTV camera captured last.""Did the CCTV capture me breaking into the building or exiting with the safe?"The policemen were at a loss but they knew they ha

When James lifted his head, everyone present was taken aback by the sight of him. His whole body was bearing the physical marks of his recent torture. His face was bruised and battered.What was even more shocking was the revelation that he was now the new owner of Emerald Multisource Cooperation. He was now the person in charge of the company.This news hit them like a thunderbolt. Even Alisha, his ex-wife, couldn't hide her surprise. She had no idea that the man she had once been married to, the man her family treated like a piece of shit was now the new owner of the very company where she worked."This can't be real!" Mr Thomas Sterling was shocked to his bones. "You're telling me he's the big boss now?""No way! I thought he was just a regular loser.""And I was even thinking the boss was going to be someone else entirely.""Well, I guess we've all underestimated this guy for a long time."On the other hand, Jaxon, Henry, and the other policemen who tortured James mercilessly fi
